The idea is to not hide in the crowd.

You catch a glimpse of a sign. Or an ad. Or what the product is about. And right away, you have ideas about the company behind it. It's natural to pick up on things. Like the feeling of a different neighborhood, or how a stranger walks into a room. People are curious. They love to find clues. To test their intuition. It makes life interesting. A brand should be ready for this kind of human consumption. And the things that make it unique should come through everywhere, every time.
